4 stars out of 5 -- "Though this snappy record is essentially jazz-rock by way of African funk, Hebden's inspired electronica additions really take DAXAAR off into Sun Ra-flecked space.", "Reid and crew hunker down into a series of rocksteady grooves that sometimes reach toward early-'70s Miles and at other times early Santana...", "Reid & Co. evoke an esoteric, circular take on Afrobeat; by taking it back to Africa -- and bringing a laptop with them..."
